Welcome to this guided breathing exercise for calming your mind and your body and helping to reduce anxiety.

Please find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed,

Turning off or silence any distractions and find a comfortable seated position,

Softly closing down your eyes.

Inhaling into your stomach,

Side ribs,

Back and chest,

Continue breathing in your own time and in your own breath.

Inhaling into your stomach,

Your side ribs,

Your back and your chest,

And exhaling from your chest,

Your back,

Side ribs and stomach.

If your attention drifts off to a thought or to a sound at any time,

That is okay,

Just return your attention back to your breath.

After your next round and finishing on an exhalation,

Return back to your natural breath,

Just breathing in and out of your nose naturally.

You can take your attention off your breath now and just sit in the stillness.

Start to listen to the sounds that are around you,

Get a sense of your surroundings.

Keeping your eyes closed,

Begin to move your fingers and your toes,

Your hands and your feet,

And slowly stretch out into the space around you.

And when you feel ready,

You can begin to open your eyes,

Starting off gazing down at the floor.

Take your time coming back around.

Thank you for practicing with me.
